Roy Keane meets Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba at Inter Miami training ground
Roy Keane isn't the biggest fan of posing for pictures but on the rare occasion, he is willing to make an exception.
The Corkman is making the most of his break away from the Sky Sports and Stick to Football studios as he is currently on holiday in the United States of America.
But the former Manchester United and Republic of Ireland hasn't taken a break away from the sport as he seems to be taking in some of the ongoing Club World Cup, which is approaching the last-16 stage.
Imagine a midfield pairing of Sergio Busquests and Roy Keane🤌🏼
Moments like these go to show highly Keane is thought of in the footballing world.
Busquests, Luis Suarez and Jori Alba weren't half bad in their prime. Class appreciates class. Legends of the game! pic.twitter.com/XLvWFKIPaq — Rep of Ireland Player Tracker (@reptracker) June 27, 2025
Keane recently got the opportunity to visit the training base of Inter Miami, who are owned by his former United teammate David Beckham, and while he was there he posed for pictures with none other than Luis Suarez, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba.
Who asked who for the pictures remains unknown, as does the whereabouts of Lionel Messi, who must have been busy preparing to the MLS side's last-16 tie against Champions League winners PSG on Sunday.
An attitude Roy would appreciate, at least.
Keane won't be stateside with his friends from Rockmount AFC for long as he will be returning home in the near future ahead of his three live shows with Roddy Doyle at the Marquee on July 7,8, and 9.

Will Enzo Fernandez be punished for racism row? Latest update on Chelsea star's inflammatory song about Kylian Mbappe
ENZO FERNANDEZ takes on his old club Benfica tonight at the heart of the Chelsea revolution under boss Enzo Maresca. The Portuguese giants made a staggering £96million PROFIT when they sold the Argentinian midfielder to the Blues in 2023 — just six months after buying him for £10m. 2 Chelsea star Enzo Fernandez will take on former side Benfica at the Club World Cup Credit: Getty 2 It comes nearly a year on from his racism storm with Argentina Even so, the fixture reopens old wounds over his departure — and a most unsavoury incident which took place a year ago next month. Benfica were angry at the way they claimed What is not 'business' is the cloud of racism hanging over the Blues' vice-captain that is not yet fully cleared. Fans back in England have seen plenty of great football from Fernandez this past 12 months. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL But Fernandez, 24, was filmed heartily joining in with dreadful songs alongside his Argentina team-mates The midfielder had just won Copa America for his country, only to let himself down massively when he should have been in a celebratory mood. Most read in Football With a large contingent of black French players in Chelsea's squad — Wesley Fofana, Malo Gusto, Benoit Badiashile and Axel Disasi — the reaction was understandably incendiary. BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS The Instagram post also carried a transphobic jibe at French superstar Kylian Mbappe and a reported relationship with transgender model Ines Rau. Chelsea vs Tottenham fan battle - 'Kane's better than Drogba at EVERYTHING' | Stoppage Time Club World Cup 2025 Guide SOME of the world's biggest clubs are in action at this summer's Club World Cup in the United States! Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, Man City, and Inter Miami are among the 32 teams taking part in the tournament, which runs from June 14 to July 13. The likes of Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland, Ousmane Dembele, Cole Palmer and Harry Kane are showcasing their skills to packed crowds across the US. INFO Everything you need to know about the Club World Cup LATEST NEWS & FEATURES Club World Cup top scorers There certainly does not appear to be any disharmony over it within the Chelsea camp. For that, those players in the dressing room who were so hurt by the rash actions of a team-mate deserve unreserved respect and admiration. News of a 'probe' being launched was posted on social media not long after Argentina had beaten Colombia 1-0 in the final yet there is still no conclusion. Fifa says it is the responsibility of South America's governing body Conmebol and SunSport has contacted them for an update — but is yet to receive a reply. Fernandez made a donation to an anti-discrimination charity as well as saying sorry to his team-mates, say Chelsea. And the club also claimed they would use the episode as an opportunity to 're-educate' their player. At the last time of asking there was no clear detail available of what that actually entails. The club wants to keep it in-house. And, in a remarkable show of defiance, new head coach Maresca backed his man by making him captain for the opening Premier League game of last season against Manchester City. Fernandez appears to have put the whole thing behind him and is now a key figure in a team that is back in the Champions League. But the silence around the investigation into a moment of madness that went worldwide within hours — and damaged the reputation of a fine player and an upstanding football club — is deafening.

Familiar Shelbourne failings allow Bobby Burns to rescue point for Galway
But Joey O'Brien and his players will travel home from Galway wondering how they failed to emerge from Eamonn Deacy Park with a victory that would put a badly-needed smile on faces. Damien Duff's stand-in will take comfort from aspects of their display considering what's coming around the corner in European competition. He is set to be given the opportunity to lead the Reds into that campaign once he gets the relevant sign-off from authorities and he does appear to be getting a response from the group. The reality, though, is that they have drawn 11 of their 24 matches this season because of an inability to be clinical in both boxes. In a game where their goalscorer Mipo Odubeko could easily have bagged a hat-trick, a late fumble from Conor Kearns allowed Galway United substitute Bobby Burns to rescue a point that looked unlikely for reasonable spells of this encounter. John Caulfield will be satisfied with that after a tricky week highlighted by the loss of top scorer Moses Dyer to a big-money deal in Cambodia. Mind you, that drama pales in comparison to what the visitors have been going through. At least Dyer's release clause had given United some preparation for what might be around the corner. Shelbourne had finished on a high in Waterford on Monday, with the opposing boss John Coleman admitting his players were blessed to survive a late rally. They brought the momentum into the opening quarter here, although O'Brien did opt to conserve the energy levels of several key players with Mark Coyle, Paddy Barrett and Evan Caffrey amongst those to drop to the bench. Linfield are around the corner, with the Irish League champions represented by a delegation that included manager David Healy. They might face different personnel in their eagerly-anticipated Champions League tie, but they did see a side that looks to have responded quite well to the drama of the last week. Healy will certainly have noted that they had a few difficult moments from crosses and defensive set pieces, an area where Galway are potent at asking questions. But there was a spark in attacking areas, the best example being the danger presented by Odubeko, the winter arrival who has failed to live up to expectations. His contribution here showed why he can both excite and frustrate. Odubeko broke the deadlock with a precise first half header from a JJ Lunney cross, a moment that the front man would have enjoyed as it allowed him to forget the anguish of a brilliant Garry Buckley goalline clearance that had denied him just beforehand. ADVERTISEMENT Learn more But from there, his contribution was a highlight reel of thrills and spills. He was a constant threat on the counter, with Shels going more direct on occasion to bring out the best in the ex-Man City and Manchester United attacker. He kept finding time and space but, when it came to the crunch, his finishing consistently let him down. O'Brien's exasperation on the sideline was evident, especially when the theme continued into the second half. Odubeko was Shelbourne's best route to putting the outcome beyond doubt, but also the reason they were unable to do so. United were off colour for the opening half hour, with the unavailability of Patrick Hickey adding to the natural loss of Dyer. Galway tried new arrival Malcolm Shaw in place of Dyer and he was busy while showing signs of lacking match sharpness. The natives did have a decent spell before the interval but Caulfield changed to a back four in the second half, a recognition of the need to be more compact in midfield where Harry Wood was enjoying a lot of freedom. However, Shels continued to create the better chances, with Odubeko's evening taking a tragicomic turn with the 22-year-old botching a gilt-edged opportunity from a clever free before looping a header wide under no pressure. It left Shels with no margin for error and that point was proven when Kearns lost control and O'Brien saw two points slip away. Boyd was inches away from a stoppage-time winner but the draw specialists were condemned to a familiar fate. Shelbourne: Kearns, Gannon, Temple, Ledwidge; Kelly (Caffrey 63), Wood (McInroy 63) , Lunney (Coyle 75), Chapman (Coote 89), Norris (Wilson 63); Boyd, Odubeko (Martin 90).
